Pet Wellness Care in Brewster, NY
Preventive Care for Dogs and Cats
General veterinary wellness care is the foundation of your pet’s long-term health. At Roosevelt Veterinary Center, we provide wellness exams and preventive care for dogs and cats in Brewster, NY, helping pet owners stay proactive about their pet’s comfort, health, and quality of life.
A routine wellness visit gives our veterinary team the opportunity to evaluate your pet from nose to tail, discuss any changes you have noticed at home, and recommend care based on your pet’s age, lifestyle, and risk factors.
What to Expect During a Wellness Exam
During your pet’s wellness checkup, our veterinarians perform a thorough physical exam and review important areas of your pet’s health. This may include listening to your pet’s heart and lungs, checking their teeth and mouth, evaluating their eyes and ears, examining their skin and coat, and assessing their joints, muscles, and overall body condition.
These visits also give you time to ask questions about nutrition, behavior, parasite prevention, vaccines, dental care, and any concerns you may have about your pet’s daily routine.
Heart, Lung, and Overall Health Screening
Listening to your pet’s heart and lungs can help us detect early signs of health concerns, such as abnormal heart rhythms, murmurs, respiratory changes, infections, or other issues that may require additional evaluation. If our team identifies something that needs a closer look, we may recommend diagnostics such as blood pressure screening, electrocardiography, ultrasound, or digital X-rays.
Early detection can make a meaningful difference in your pet’s treatment options and long-term health.
Dental, Eye, Ear, Skin, and Mobility Checks
Dental disease is one of the most common health concerns in dogs and cats, which is why oral exams are an important part of preventive care. We also evaluate your pet’s eyes for signs of vision or pressure-related concerns, check the ears for irritation or infection, and look closely at the skin for lumps, hair loss, lesions, or other changes.
Your veterinarian will also assess your pet’s joints, muscles, and movement. This is especially helpful for growing puppies and kittens, active adult pets, and senior pets who may be developing arthritis or mobility challenges.
Lab Work and Preventive Testing
Wellness visits may include lab testing to screen for internal health concerns that are not visible during a physical exam. Depending on your pet’s age and needs, this may include heartworm testing, fecal testing for intestinal parasites, urinalysis, bloodwork, or other preventive screenings.
For older pets, routine lab work can help create a baseline and identify changes in organ function, blood cell counts, and overall systemic health.
Flea and Tick Prevention
Fleas and ticks can affect your pet’s comfort and may carry diseases that impact their health. During wellness visits, our team can discuss your pet’s risk factors and recommend veterinary-approved flea and tick prevention options that fit their lifestyle.
